Baltimore Orioles 1B Chris Davis plans to change his approach at the plate, after finishing the 2014 season hitting just .196. He is considering bunting more often in order to take advantage of opponents increasingly using the shift against him. "There were times last year when I did lay a bunt down, but for me it's really a comfort thing," Davis said during a radio interview with 105.3 The Fan. "It's different going out there and working off a machine or even a BP arm and laying balls down the third base line and going into a game and doing it. For me, it was just a comfort thing and I have worked on it this offseason. I've probably worked on it more this offseason than I have in the past. If it's a one-run game, I'm probably not going to lay one down, but there are situations where unselfishly it's probably the best thing to do. It's definitely a weapon I can use against other teams."

Baltimore Orioles 1B Chris Davis received an exemption from Major League Baseball to use Adderall in 2015, according to manager Buck Showalter. Adderall is the substance that led to his failed drug test in 2014.

Baltimore Orioles 1B Chris Davis will not be on the roster for the American League Championship Series, according to manager Buck Showalter. Davis has five games remaining on his 25-game suspension and would not be eligible to play until Game 6, if the series went that deep.

Baltimore Orioles manager Buck Showalter said a decision has not been made regarding whether 1B Chris Davis will be placed on the team's ALCS roster, assuming the Orioles advance to the next round. "If we don't win one more game against Detroit, nothing is going to come next," Showalter said. "That's something we will turn our attention to if and when his days are up." Davis has already served 20 games of a 25-game suspension following a positive test for an amphetamine.
